how do you get these prices?
[QUOTE=Raverboy]Thanks to this excellent summary of SVH massage places by HCMge, tried An Chi 2 and Hoang Chau Hotel over the span of the last few months.
AC2 is not bad, had me a Mekong Delta cutie who washed my hair, gave me a facial, then brought me to slow eruption with her mouth and hands, for VND 200.000 tip and VND 150.000 to the house as reported. Room is basic but has a TV and connecting bathroom, like a typical VNmese no tell hotel room. Ground floor made up to look like a hair salon. You can pick the girl, arrangements can be easily made for outside of the girl's working hours (9 am - 9 pm).
Hoang Chau Hotel massage is set up like many of the typical VNmese no tell hotels with massage centres. Sauna/Hot Pool/TV Lounge, but facilities here are drab and a little 'seasoned'. Massage itself is forgettable but BJ is standard. You can't pick the girl unless you know her by name or number. VND 200.000 to the girl, VND 100.000 to the house.[/QUOTE]First of all thanks for the reports on HCMC. It gave a good overview on where to go and not wasting too much time. Although it was difficult to figure out your abbreviations of streets. Better keep the long name, it`s only two words more.
However, I have been to two places in HCMC on my short trip here and must say to be very disappointed:
Anh Chi 2 on Su Van Hanh Street was a standard boring BJ (no CIM) for incredible 500k plus 150k to the house. I tried it with the advertised 200k, but there wasn`t a chance of even reducing it to 400k. The option would have been to leave.
Unfortunately I wanted it quite badly, so this was not an option..
Damage in total 650k VND
Then I tried to place at the Superbowl Center, 1st floor next from the cinema. Here they didnīt even gave a BJ, only HJ. Requested Tip was 400K VND, no chance of negotiation either.
So, maybe I only had bad luck or my bargaining skills are negligible, but it definitely was my last try in Vietnam.
Good luck to all others, but IMHO Vietnam is quite a rip-off in this regard, so I will stick my stick to good old Thailand.
